Salesforce Implementation and Support for Nonprofits and Charities

Lauren Stewart Clara Partners CEO Salesforce nonprofit consultant

We've designed our services to meet you where you are. Whether that's migrating to Salesforce for the first time, improving an existing setup, or getting ongoing support from a team that genuinely understands your world. We work with nonprofits and charities across Australia and New Zealand.

Every engagement starts with listening. We learn your organisation, your data, your team and your goals before we recommend anything. Then we build something that works for you, not just something that works.

How we help

End-to-end Salesforce implementation for nonprofits and charities, from discovery and design through to data migration, configuration and go-live. We translate Salesforce into plain language and project manage the entire process so your team can stay focused on your mission.

We project manage your entire Salesforce migration, sharing knowledge, flagging risks early, and keeping everything on track. We act as the bridge between your organisation and the technology, so nothing gets lost in translation.

Ongoing support and maintenance

Your Salesforce needs to evolve as fast as your organisation does. We support you after go-live or at any stage of your Salesforce journey. We do this through system health checks, maintenance, new release assistance and ongoing improvements. We stay close so your system grows alongside you.

One-off projects

Need a specific problem solved without committing to a full engagement? We take on one-off projects including new functionality, data migrations, integrations, system audits and custom Salesforce builds. We scope clearly and deliver on time.

Bridgit - data automation

Bridgit is our native Salesforce data automation tool built specifically for nonprofits. It automates the movement of third-party data including regular giving files from telemarketing or face-to-face fundraising agencies directly into Salesforce, Raisely and GiveEasy. What used to take weeks of manual spreadsheet work now takes minutes.

Training and upskilling

We train your team on both user and system administrator duties, specifically for nonprofits and charities. Whether you're onboarding new staff or upskilling your whole team, we make sure the people using Salesforce every day feel genuinely confident using it.

  • Stop wrangling data - meet Bridgit

    Are you tired of the “weekly spreadsheet shuffle”? Many nonprofits face a universal headache: receiving regular giving data from telemarketing or face-to-face agencies that just doesn’t talk to their CRM or payment platform. Manually cleaning, mapping and uploading these files can take days, or even weeks, leaving your data stale and your team exhausted.

  • Is Salesforce right for you?

    Choosing the right CRM is a major decision for any organisation, but for nonprofits, the stakes are even higher. Every dollar and hour saved has a direct impact on your charity work. Salesforce is a global leader in this space, not just because it’s powerful, but because it is designed specifically to help nonprofits thrive. 

  • Managed service that feel like a partnership

    If you’ve ever felt like your Salesforce consultant treats your organisation like a ticket number rather than a partner, you’re not alone. At Clara Partners, we’ve intentionally built our managed services to be delivered differently. We don’t just drop in, fix a bug and disappear. We embed ourselves in your team.
